Stamping Sensations April Challenge

We are sponsored by Be Creative who are offering a whopping £25 prize to spend in their store - but remember you MUST follow our challenge rules to be eligible for the prize!Although the challenge theme sounds simple, we do have some basic rules that we ask you to follow. This makes it fair to everyone who submits an entry! Please read our rules over on the blog.

I opted for a CAS card this month, done on a linen textured card base and using up some small pieces for the flowers.
(A visit to the Playground beckons!)

I love this layering set from Altenew called Peony Bouquet, although I didn't use all the layers for this card.

Treated myself to a set of 4 Hero Arts inks in lovely shades of green - not a colour I use a lot of normally but I really like how this turned out.

The outline stamp was inked in 'Antigua'.
Then used two more of the layering stamps in 'Tide Pool' and 'Mint Julep'.
All fussy cut (not rich enough to buy the dies!).

Happily I managed to find a scrap of paper which matched perfectly so used that as a mat behind the stitched rectangle die.

Sentiment from Technique Tuesday inked in 'Tide Pool' and a couple of Dew Drops.

Please see what my teamies have delivered up this month to inspire you!

This stamp set from Altenew has to be my most used and I just love how you used it in this colour alone.I can't enter the challenge as my image is digi not a stamp, I will before the challenge ends though as I have some in the making and already stamped....hugs.xx💖 [Aussie aNNie's Blog]

The Altenew layered flowers are always so lovely, and this set is just breath-taking in the shades of spring green. Looks awesome with the dimension you've given the flowers over the linen paper. Very elegant, very classy. TFS & have a good week.

Proud to be -
